First edition, first printing. Published by MacDonald & Co in London, 1982. This is a very good copy. The dust wrapper is slightly worn at the spine tips and with slight marking at the corners – slight off-setting to the top of the front panel. The rear panel is bright and mostly free from handling marks. It has not been clipped. The boards have a slight lean, though are otherwise free from chips and marks. The text blocks are mostly free from foxing, however there is some to the bottom edge. This copy is free from previous owner’s ink, and is overall a very good copy.
Cujo’s name was based on the alias of Willie Wolfe, one of the men responsible for orchestrating Patty Hearst’s kidnapping and indoctrination into the Symbionese Liberation Army. Stephen King discusses Cujo in On Writing, referring to it as a novel he “barely remembers writing at all.” King wrote the book during the height of his struggle with alcohol addiction. King goes on to say he likes the book and wishes he could remember enjoying the good parts as he put them on the page.
